The Rome ot To-Day.

Portions of old Rome are now dis appearing, notably the Ghetto, or Jewish quarter, and New Rome is in- creasing so fast that its greater up- rising buildings look not unlike those of New York, were it not for that poetry of color-pink, yellow, terra cotta and pale blue-in which inc Italians so much delight Great changes are going on over the Eternal City-excavations in the Forum and elsewhere are being libarally pushed, and sanitary measures enforced. Whole streets of fine buildings are re- placing ruin and debris, and. as if its S60 churches were not enough, St. John L rterap, where all the Popes are crowned, has been enlarged to q sur prising extent, while St. Paul beyond the walls, which to my mind is quite as splendid as St. Peter's, has now a completed facade. Growth and enter- prise are marks of our time even in oll Rome, stimulated, no doubt, by the constant stream of tourists, but en- couraged also by the wise policy of King Umberto, who loves his people and is idolized by them. -Al6Gny -Ar" gus.

PATRIOTIC OLD ABE.
Some Interesting Information About tn
 Famous Wisconsin Bird.

Some Interesting Information About the Famous Wisconsin Bird.
 "Old Abe" the whilom war eagle of the Eighth regiment, Wisconsin volunteers, is one of the attractions in the collection of war relics at the Exposition building. He is only stuffed and doesn't look as big as when he accompanied the eagle regiment on Southern battle fields. A wooden tab let attached to his perch bears this in- scription: "Hatched February, 1861; died March 26, 1884,"
 E. H. Webster, of Greenbusch, Sheboy- gan County, Lieutenant of Company lB, of the Eighth regiment, gave Milwaukee Sentilet reporter some information about the old bird. "When our company came into camp at Madison we were told by the men of Company c, who brought the eagle with them from Eau Claire, that he was taken from his nest by an Indian and presented to them by him. I have read a more romantic tale of his capture since then, but this story is undoubtedly correct, as nobody then thought of in. venting the pleasant fictions about the fa- nous eagle which. have since become so numerous. Our regiment broke camp at Camp Randall, in compliance with an or der to go to Missouri, and while marching through St. Louis the eagle broke its string and flew away. We all thought that that was the last we would see of him, and Colonel Murphy offered to give twenty y-five dollars to any one who would bring him back. You know Murphy, don't you? He left our regiment and was put in charge of a brigade. and surrendered at the battle of Holly Springs. But am di- gressing.
 F.. okS of the boys pointed up into the air at a large bird which was approaching up, and said that he'd bet that it was "Old Abe" We fixed a perch on camp chest, and very soon the eagle sailed down and took his place on the perch. He had been fish. ing, and was as wet as a rat. We put him on a string again, and sometimes let him go, as he was always sure of re- turning Occasionally we let him loose during an engagement, and then he would fly about overhead or sit quietly on his perch. 1 believe the comfederates brought down some of his feathers once, and after that he always ed and acted mad when a fight was going on. General Price, of the Confederates, once said he would rather capture the eagle than the whole regiment.
 "'Old Abe' was a nuisance in some re- spects. He was thieving bird, and when the rations were distributed he had to be watched or he would steal the best mor- sels away. He liked beef and all kinds of meat when there was scarcely any for the boys. He was up 10 all sorts of mischief, and wounded some of the boys who were spared by rebel bullets. They would plague him and he would peg at them, frequently drawing the blood"
 After the regiment returned from the war "Old Abe" was we'll cared for at Mad ison until his death, which ensued from natural causes.

Melotrope and MeIograph

The melograph of M. Carpenter, by which musical compositions are writ ten down or registered, has now been supplemented by a ''melo- trope'' from the same inventor, which enables them to be played au- torlatically in any key. For this pur- pose the melograph bands are per- forated, and caused to operate the melotrope, an ingenious instrument which we need not fully describe, and which is still in it's experimental stage, With the mslograph and melotrope 1t is now possible to register an ima proyisatio1 OF rleee of classic music. and reprod LGe # aAtOmatiealIY' - Bn- gl,lesFtna.

DemoraIizino To ASIs.

Some sharp observer in Westfield (N. " has discovered that the electric lights recently placed on the more retired streets are demoralizing to the toads. It is as- serted that these useful batrachians, at- tracted by the brilliant light when the streets are quiet, gather by dozens under it and hold high reveys. The greatly en- Iarged shadows of countless insects fiut-
 tering around the ligSt fall upon the ground, and the innocent toads, thinking them to be real, hop about in all directions to catch thom, making it seem as though they were going through merry cotillon.

YES, he loves you now, 'tis true,
 Lass with eyes of violet blue,
 Lips as sweet as honey-dew,
 Bonny little bride!
 Will he love you as to-day,
 When your bloom has fled away,
 When your golden locks are grey
 Will his love abide? Yes, if it is the true kind it will survive all the inevitable wastes and changes of life. But, it is every woman's desire and duty to retain, as long as she can, the at fractions that made her charming and be- loved in youth. No one can keep her youth full bloom or equable temper if weighed down and suffering from female weakness and disorders. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre- scription is a remedy for these troubles.
